Man I can't wait.. Go Pack! :towel:

EDIT: I just realized the horrible broadcasting that will be taking place. The monotone's of the industry just suck in my humble opinion (Aikman and Buck). I'd rather have Moose Johnston and whoever the other guy is (Minus the Goose, he's just annoying).

[FightForEveryTD]

i wish my eyes could see how cold its supposed to be

[Montana_Magic]

This has to be killing Jimmy Johnson.

[DraconisRex]

I'm thinking about rooting for the Giants here and in the Superbowl if they win it. Then I can mock the Cowboy fans even more than I've been doing this week.

[krowleey]

man this is gong to be a rough game to play in, its cooooooooooold!!

[chief rocka]

[FightForEveryTD]

ryan grant vs brandon jacobs

battle of people with last names that should be first names

[Badger49erFan]

Go Giants!!! Can't stand the packers.

[superman1]

hate em both,but at least the Giants did play them awesome only to lose,the Pats that is,who cares they ain't going to let the Pats lose in any case.too much history involved.

[superman1]

Manning is a bitz and so is Favre.

[Big Blue]

I truly believe Favre is the only one who can beat the Pats, for that reason alone...GO Packers!

[Gof the Gij]

I'm rooting for the Packers, simply because I believe they have the better chance at beating the Patriots.

[Montana_Magic]

Giants have to pound the ball over the right side alot today. Perfect weather for a pound it out game.

[Big Blue]

I'm cold just watching it

[OsBoogie]

a giants win gives us a better draft pick or no?

[DraconisRex]

a giants win gives us a better draft pick or no?


No. Only the Chargers could have moved us up.

[NortyFiner]

Nice coverage by Bigby to break up that TD pass to Boss.

****, it looks cold there, even by my standards.

[Tahoegirl]

Go Giants lets see Farve go down..

[OsBoogie]

No. Only the Chargers could have moved us up.

well that sucks... I hate both teams... guess I have to roll with GB now... I hate Favre... but all the homers talking about Eli and the Giants might send me packing out of state

[Khari]

go team without a manning on it :woot2:

[WhistlingMtn]

that was one of the funnier drops I've seen in a while

[krowleey]

G-Men!!!!!!!!!!1

[krowleey]

so far g-men are dominating the packers. hope they keep it up!

[WhistlingMtn]

so far g-men are dominating the packers. hope they keep it up!

Yea packers offense really looking out of sorts, Giants doing really well.

My biggest hope for this game is that whoever wins, they make it out of the game without any major injuries. Nothing would be worse than the winning team losing a couple starters in the 4th quarter for injuries that would take more than 2 weeks to heal.

[WhistlingMtn]

Should note that the Packers came out slow last week too.

[Big Blue]

Wow...just wow.

[DraconisRex]

Whoa! We need a WR like that...

[WhistlingMtn]

and one blown coverage and the Giants are losing.

[sre94Fan]

Whoa! We need a WR like that...

Or maybe a qb like that? :hoppy:

[NyNinerFan]

Giants pass rush + 49ers secondary = less than 100 passing yards per game

[Big Blue]

Or maybe a qb like that? :hoppy:

How bout a TEAM like that.

[NortyFiner]

Favre to Driver...how many times have we said that in the last however many years? One of the best QB-WR combos in the game, whether you love them or hate them...

[Rockyn]

Favre with a nice little head/pump fake brought the safety in. That's just art.

Driver absolutely threw the CB like a rag doll.

[NortyFiner]

that was one of the funnier drops I've seen in a while

That drop to Toomer looked like he just got slammed in the chest by a block of ice. I bet that's what it felt like too...wow it's cold there.

[NyNinerFan]

and one blown coverage and the Giants are losing.

it's what happens when u kick field goals in the red zone in the playoffs

[WhistlingMtn]

I thought it was illegal for an offensive player to throw a defensive player down

[NyNinerFan]

Or maybe a qb like that? :hoppy:

ditto:pirate2:

[WhistlingMtn]

That drop to Toomer looked like he just got slammed in the chest by a block of ice. I bet that's what it felt like too...wow it's cold there.

seriously, it looked like he didn't even try to catch it till it hit him in the chest. I wonder if he never actually tried, but his body convulsed when he got hit with a brick. =o)

[NortyFiner]

Two good plays by Bigby in a row. He's become one of my favorite DB's.

[sre94Fan]

Bigby is savage, like bob sanders part two.

[OsBoogie]

Two good plays by Bigby in a row. He's become one of my favorite DB's.

he should name his son Nintendo... I'm sure he'd be better...

[NyNinerFan]

Favre to Driver...how many times have we said that in the last however many years? One of the best QB-WR combos in the game, whether you love them or hate them...

Truth:wink:

[NyNinerFan]

man.. Jennings is good

[DraconisRex]

Or maybe a qb like that? :hoppy:

Tossing the ball to a WR open by 5 yards isn't anything any QB on our team can't do.

[sre94Fan]

Tossing the ball to a WR open by 5 yards isn't anything any QB on our team can't do.

I havent seen them do it :wink:

[NortyFiner]

Looks like the Packers D has picked up a spark from that TD.

Giants D showing a little Tom Landry 4-3 flex look there with the MLB up between the tackles...

[krowleey]

horrible call

[Montana_Magic]

man, if only Plax could have held on to that ball.

[DraconisRex]

I havent seen them do it :wink:

Whatever.

[NortyFiner]

Note to Brandon Jacobs: you're big, and you might be able to carry Nick Barnett. But you're not gonna carry Corey Williams that way...

[DraconisRex]

Big penalty!

[Rockyn]

Weak penalty.

[DraconisRex]

Did someone replace Eli with a robot?

[DraconisRex]

Wow. What a wild first down.

[Rockyn]

Hahaha Jacobs with a little taunting :falldownlaugh: They're not too pleased..

This should be an exciting finish.

[krowleey]

go G-men!!!!

[NortyFiner]

The Packers killed themselves on that drive. Stupid penalties, one after the other. If I was Mike McCarthy, I would be chewing the defense out from the DC on down.

[Rockyn]

Sam Madison just cost his team 7.

[Big Blue]

Oh Sammy...Sammy Sammy...

[NortyFiner]

Madison trying to plead his case on the sideline after that penalty to set up the TD, and Strahan telling him to talk to the hand... :laugh:

[NortyFiner]

Bad challenge by Green Bay. It was complete on the replay, and you can't call it back unless it's crystal clear. Waste of a time out.

[krowleey]

g-men giving pack a run for thier money.....

[BrentJones84]

Both of which are making me question if the Packers really are the best team to attempt to give the Pats a real game.

[Rockyn]

...wow what the heck? That was an unbelievable sequence...

[Big Blue]

Oh my ****ing god lol

[FightForEveryTD]

troy brown

[BrentJones84]

That's the weirdest play I've ever seen.

[DraconisRex]

Wilder and wilder.

[FightForEveryTD]

That's the weirdest play I've ever seen.

it happened last year bolts vs pats

[NortyFiner]

The rest of the Pack playing hard just saved Brett Favre from an INT. That was a lineman getting 20 yards downfield who recovered that fumble...

[Trap_Star]

Webster FTW!

[BrentJones84]

From the NFL.com play by play:

1-10-NYG 31 (14:18) 4-B.Favre pass deep left intended for 81-K.Robinson INTERCEPTED by 25-R.McQuarters at NYG 9. 25-R.McQuarters to NYG 19 for 10 yards (25-R.Grant). FUMBLES (25-R.Grant), RECOVERED by GB-65-M.Tauscher at NYG 19. :laugh:

[offtackle24]

20-20




how the hell did you fumble that?!?!?!?!

[Rockyn]

Webster FTW!

Woot woot! :laugh:

[Big Blue]

Special teams is killing the Packers.

[krowleey]

looks like manning is helping in the killing of the packers ;)

[BrentJones84]

looks like manning is helping in the killing of the packers ;)

I'm going to have to laugh if Eli pulls this out.


The Giants are playing much better than I expected them to.

[Gof the Gij]

Let's go Pack!

[WhistlingMtn]

I'm going to have to laugh if Eli pulls this out.


The Giants are playing much better than I expected them to.

Yea, I don't know why all the "experts" think Green Bay is the only team that can put up a game with the Patriots.. The Giants already put up a great game against them and were clearly capable of beating them.

Looks like both teams are avoiding injuries ( good for the superbowl )

Though Coughlin's face looks like it's about to peel off.

[FightForEveryTD]

wow

[DraconisRex]

Ha! Ha! Coughlin is no Norv Turner!

[NortyFiner]

BS PI call. He was clearly playing the ball.

[WhistlingMtn]

BS PI call. He was clearly playing the ball.

Umm, he hit him before the ball got there, doesn't matter if you're playing the ball.

[krowleey]

BS PI call. He was clearly playing the ball.

he turned him with his left arm, you willc alled everytime doing that.

[DraconisRex]

Fake it! Fake it!

[krowleey]

lol they should have

[FightForEveryTD]

yup

[Gof the Gij]

Favre drives down for a TD.

[FightForEveryTD]

favre needs to relax a bit

[krowleey]

Favre drives down for a TD.

favre throws a int returned for a td

[NortyFiner]

Tynes hooked the FG. Looked to me like his plant foot came down a little wide and pulled it left.

[krowleey]

nice D G-men!!!

[Gof the Gij]

or not.

[FightForEveryTD]

"lets go eli"

[krowleey]

drive that ball, run the clock win it at the end come on baby!!!!

[FightForEveryTD]

why is the clock stopped

[krowleey]

wow what a game.

[Big Blue]

why is the clock stopped

Measurement

[FightForEveryTD]

offsides

[NortyFiner]

KGB with the sack!

[FightForEveryTD]

can favre drive 70 yards

[krowleey]

here we go g-men dont blow it

[FightForEveryTD]

it hurts my face when i look at coughlins face

[Big Blue]

The way Ryan is punting, this could be a very short field for the Giants

[Big Blue]

Oh man...that was intense

[NortyFiner]

Dammit, I lost my place. I was alternating bottles of Guinness and Killian's, and can't remember which I had last...

[krowleey]

wow he almost blew it again....

[FightForEveryTD]

this is crazy

[WhistlingMtn]

those 2 packers are going to be throwing up for the next 8 months.

[NortyFiner]

it hurts my face when i look at coughlins face

He's probably going to have to get checked for frostbite after the game...

[krowleey]

there is home reffin at its finest

[FightForEveryTD]

this is crazy.

[krowleey]

horrible call.................

[NortyFiner]

Bradshaw reminds me of a more physical version of Tiki Barber. Combining him with Jacobs is good because they are totally different styles of RB, and that makes defenses have to double their run game planning...

[WhistlingMtn]

horrible call.................

It was close, but I don't know how the ref from the linebacker side saw it, if anyone could have seen it it would have been the back judge.

[krowleey]

It was close, but I don't know how the ref from the linebacker side saw it, if anyone could have seen it it would have been the back judge.


bad call at the end of a championship game, bring back a game winning TD.

[MENGO49er]

there is home reffin at its finest
Yes but I didn´t understand Coughlin calling his last timeout just before a GB punt ... :lightbulb:

[krowleey]

wow g-men really want this game it shows..

[NortyFiner]

Yes but I didn´t understand Coughlin calling his last timeout just before a GB punt ... :lightbulb:

Yeah, I was wondering about that myself.

[WhistlingMtn]

Steve Smith needs some experience, earlier in the game he decided to try to catch an underthrown eli pass with one hand rather than just stopping and making the catch, and here not rolling or jumping forward after making a great catch, inches are important in the playoffs.

[FightForEveryTD]

catch...not enough evidence to overturn

[krowleey]

play action right here

[WhistlingMtn]

"there's no question the ball was moving"... what?, what are you talking about?!

[krowleey]

what a game

[krowleey]

nail it !!!!!!!!

[montana2taylor]

Miss It!!!!!

[Big Blue]

Poor Tynes...talk about pressure. If he misses he better not show up back in NY.

[FightForEveryTD]

cant miss back to back in a game like this

[Big Blue]

Wow

[NortyFiner]

Good call on the review, that was definitely a catch by Steve Smith. His right arm was under it the whole time.

It comes down to a FG...

MISS!

[krowleey]

what a choker

[FightForEveryTD]

This Is Crazy

[Gof the Gij]

Worst. Kick. Ever.

Made Pochman look like an all-pro.

[WhistlingMtn]

wow Giants.. Tynes welcome to getting cut again!

[MENGO49er]

The Giants kicker may not return to NY ...:hoppy:

[NortyFiner]

Wow. I would NOT want to be Tynes right now.

[Gnihsif]

packers ball

[NyNinerFan]

what a choker

pitiful..

great play by Feagles..

but i disagree completely with the strategy to "hold for the field goal" by the Giants. Tynes has been horrificaly inconsistent all season and we saw what he just did from 37 yards earlier.. just not a very good decision IMO..

[ninerlicious]

tynes is toast.

[Big Blue]

Can't help but think of Scott Norwood...except this time the Giants are on the wrong end.

[ClobberHouse]

Flashback to 2002 49ers vs Giants, high snap!!!! Face NY

[FightForEveryTD]

monday night vs denver broncos...beware giants DBs

[krowleey]

this sucks......

[YousaHater]

Yessss Ot!

[FightForEveryTD]

lol wanna get away commercial

[Big Blue]

Now the Packers return men just need to hold onto the ball for once. They've had way too many close calls this game

[Gof the Gij]

Good game.

[NyNinerFan]

regardless of how this ends, the Packers have done NOTHING at all in this game that would mire looking even a LITTLE bit impressive..
the Giants have given them a gift 10 points in this game (Madison's penalty and McQuarters fumble after the pick) and take away the 90 yard TD, what have they really done in this game?

[sre94Fan]

Reminds me of the jose cortez years.

[krowleey]

i agree, if they do win, thanks in part by the td comming back from the refs, good luck playing the pats.

agreed, but history will show brett favre single handedly winning this game

[NortyFiner]

agreed, but history will show brett favre single handedly winning this game

Not as long as they have the film of that INT that Ryan Grant and the OL saved him from. :laugh:

[NyNinerFan]

agreed, but history will show brett favre single handedly winning this game

yeah exactly. :laugh:

[Gnihsif]

[Gof the Gij]

Fail.

[krowleey]

hell yes!!!!

[gnoix]

yeah yeah yeah...


oh noe!

[FightForEveryTD]

nvm

[DEEVO_619]

Pick!!!

[MENGO49er]

And here we go again ...

[NyNinerFan]

what a clutch player! by far top 3 quarterbacks of all time.. :laugh:

[FightForEveryTD]

cmon tynes lol

[krowleey]

with that kicker though this is scary

[NortyFiner]

Good blitz pickup by the Packers, but an excellent play by Webster, just reading the play and getting in place for the INT. That's the art of the DB right there.

[Gnihsif]

Tynes Championship!

[Montana_Magic]

hopefully this isn't another seahawk game....

[BrentJones84]

And here we go again ...

Wow....erie similar to one of Indy's playoff games last year.....kicker misses the FG and sends the game into OT.

[FightForEveryTD]

this time he makes it

[Big Blue]

oh man...

[krowleey]

hahahahahahahhahahaa!!!!

[Gnihsif]

Giants going to the superbowl

[NyNinerFan]

:ski: :banana4:

[BrentJones84]

Wow....erie similar to one of Indy's playoff games last year.....kicker misses the FG and sends the game into OT.

And then the kicker redeems himself in OT.

[WhistlingMtn]

now everyone can pick against the Giants again!

[NortyFiner]

Well, Tynes just saved his job...

[MENGO49er]

Wow, everything turns ...

[Gof the Gij]

Talk about atonement.

[krowleey]

Eli deserves this he is playing great footballl

[FightForEveryTD]

tynes for mayor of new york city

[SBbound49ers]

2 biggest bandwagon fan bases get the Super Bowl. :thud:

[NortyFiner]

Anybody think this might make Favre reconsider that retirement option again?

[NyNinerFan]

great time to retire now, huh Brett.. :laugh:

[montana2taylor]

This sucks. The Pack was the only team that could realistically beat the pats.

[ninerlicious]

ok, i take it back, tynes might not exactly be toast.

[BrentJones84]

Back to back Super Bowl appearances by a QB named Manning.

A bet a year ago no one would think it would be Eli and not Peyton for the 2nd go around.

[FightForEveryTD]

:doubleup: Aaron rodgers wouldnt have thrown a pick in OT:doubleup:

[Gof the Gij]

Let's go G-Men!

[niners_believer]

Yeah baby..Now i can root against the Patriots. Go Eli all the way!

[Khari]

i hafta root for NE now......I hate Eli.... :woot2:

[nolanlover]

alex smith > eli !!!

[DraconisRex]

Yes! Now I get to bug the Cowboy fans even more...

[mahimahi23]

This sucks. The Pack was the only team that could realistically beat the pats.

You must not have watched the Giants/Pats game in week 17.

[Big Blue]

I love how everyone writes off Favre as washed up now when a week ago they were saying he should play for another 5 years.

[krowleey]

Back to back Super Bowl appearances by a QB named Manning.

still think the giants are not that good???

[montana2taylor]

You must not have watched the Giants/Pats game in week 17.

I did and no way do the Giants repeat that performance.

[BrentJones84]

And to think how many threads we've had over the last few years saying Coughlin should be fired and Eli is a bust.

:laugh:

[DEEVO_619]

You must not have watched the Giants/Pats game in week 17.

Exactly my point. If the Pats win, they better come ready to play come the SB.

[Gof the Gij]

Tiki must feel like a complete ****wad now :falldownlaugh:

[MENGO49er]

This sucks. The Pack was the only team that could realistically beat the pats.
Do you remember the Giants-Pats game (week 17) ...??

[Montana_Magic]

Not a bad first season for Jerry Reese.

[sandiegojoe]

thank you NY, we pick 29th now

[NyNinerFan]

how you think Tiki's feeling right about now? :laugh:


"wanna get a way??! " :falldownlaugh:

[FightForEveryTD]

I love how everyone writes off Favre as washed up now when a week ago they were saying he should play for another 5 years.

who is calling him washed up

he takes ridiculous chances and has been taking them throughout his career.
This is the bad side of his gun slinger style

[ninerlicious]

take that tiki. :laugh:

how embarrasing.

[FightForEveryTD]

how you think Tiki's feeling right about now? :laugh:


"wanna get a way??! " :falldownlaugh:

A Giant should diss him right now because Tiki has been dissing eli and Coughlin in the begining of the season. "we did it without ya"

[DEEVO_619]

LOL at Tiki.

:hangloose:

[BrentJones84]

still think the giants are not that good???

The Giants played way better than I thought they would have.

The deserved to win this game. And they are no doubt the best team in the NFC.


But to be fair, the Packers defense committed a lot of dumb penalties that gave the Giants extra scoring opportunities, and I'm not so sure the Patriots will give the G-men so many opportunities.

Anyway, I'm going to root for the Giants in the big game, just because it would tick off all the Patriots band wagoners. :fishing:

[BrentJones84]

how you think Tiki's feeling right about now? :laugh:


"wanna get a way??! " :falldownlaugh:

right on, i think we will have a good superbowl this year and one of two things will happen. the pats get a perfect season, or eli will be a NY hero.

[gnoix]

Down with the Patriots! Manning > Patriots

[ninerlicious]

too bad this wasn't on NBC... the post game show would have been hilarious:laugh:

[ninerjeff]

thanks for NOTHING packers. now we HAVE to see favre again NEXT YEAR. will this man EVER retire?? our nightmare continues. not only THAT but this gives the patriots SMOOOTH SAILING towards an eventual undefeated season. the pack would've given them a better game. the giants don't stand a chance

[Big Blue]

right on, i think we will have a good superbowl this year and one of two things will happen. the pats get a perfect season, or eli will be a NY hero.

Not just a NY hero...most polls show that about 65-75% of the nation is rooting against the Patriots. Eli has a chance to become legendary in the eyes of football fans everywhere. Amazing how far he's come in just a few games.

[ninerjeff]

right on, i think we will have a good superbowl this year and one of two things will happen. the pats get a perfect season, or eli will be a NY hero.

it'll be OVER by halftime. a REEEEAL snoozer trust me:laugh:

Yes, as I was soundly mocking my best friend because the Giants are going and the Cowboys aren't, I realizde the downside of the Giant victory was another year of the "Brett Favre Death Watch." IMO, it's worse than Schiavo.

[NyNinerFan]

2000 Super Bowl all over again. A team for the ages against an overmatched Little Giants squad.

they didn't look so overmatched a few weeks ago in the Meadowlands

Yeah, that's why they lost by 3 and put more points up on the Patriots than any other team in the NFL this season. Because they're so massively over-matched. :wink:

If Eli keeps playing at this high level through the Superbowl, the Giants can win. I'd still put my money on the Patriots. But the Giants have a realistic chance.

The one thing they have going for them is that they're confident that they can do it. They won't be scared of the Pats like a lot of other teams would.

I still think they lose by 14 tho...

we're 49er fans.. we haven't had football for about 5 years now..

So true, so true.

Not sure about that. Should be interesting to see what kind of gameplan Steve S. draws up to stop the Pats Offense.

[BrentJones84]

Not just a NY hero...most polls show that about 65-75% of the nation is rooting against the Patriots. Eli has a chance to become legendary in the eyes of football fans everywhere. Amazing how far he's come in just a few games.

Now we can go from "Eli is a bust" talk to "Eli for HOF" talk. :fishing:

NE is the greater evil IMO. **** the ****ing PayCheats :yahoo:

Farve looks pretty upset in his post game, but he's not going TO on us.

Live by Favre...die by Favre. I was hoping GB would make it. Oh well, time to root for the G-Men. It was good game.

It was a GREAT game.. I mean, I guess I was pulling more for the Giants slightly, but i basically was neutral most of this game.. And for this to be an NFC Championship game coming down to the wire, Favre and Eli, the weather, and for it to come down to an overtime.. this was a heck of a football game if you're a football fan
